Look Out. General,

Hand-bills have been printed announcing
that Il the Salvation Army will celebrate
Washington's Birthday = Tuesday, Feb
ruary 22d-at their new barracks, Eighth
street, between 1 and j." The lamented
George w. knew great deal about armies,
but he had no idea of such combination
as the Salvationists present, and it is
scarcely right to take advantage of him in
this manner, now that he is unable to de-
fend himself. However, we give the pro-
gramme in full, that the public may see
what is threatened, and make preparations
for the worst-the very worst

ANOTHER OLD RESIDENT GoNE-Tbom

ANOTHER OLD RESIDENT GoNE-Thom;
Jones, ali old and esteemed resident of
this city, died yesterday afternoon at the
residence of his son-in. law, Matt F. John
son. Mr.. Jones came to California across
the plains in 1S49. For three years he
mined in Sierra county, and in 1852 he set
tied in Sacramento, and has followed the
business of master painter since. 1t was
under his supervision that the State Capt.
tol building was painted. He was highly
regarded by all who knew him, for his
honorable conduct and upright dealings,
and was especially loved by his workmen
for his kind and watchful consideration
for their interests. He leaves widow and
and son and daughter-Hon c. 7. Jones
and Mrs. Matt F. Johnson, both residents
of this city.

1t consists of thirty-two pages of admirably
prepared attractively presented matter,
and which is strongly emphasized by nu-
merous excellent engravings of public
buildings, farm and vineyard scenes, por-
traits OF distinguished men of the State
etc. 1t is paper which, in the hands Of
Eastern readers, will be read and rereau.

SLIGHT FIRE.-About o'clock yesterday
morning it was discovered that building
on the north side of l street, between
Third and Fourth, was on fire in the base
ment. and Immediately there was great
excitement in Chinatown, as it appeared
probable that the calamity foreshadowed
by the crying devils appearance in that
quarter was at hand. Some of the Celes-
tails, however. who did not have complete
faith in the "banshee." procured water,
blankets, etc., and put the fire out. 1t is
supposed to have been caused by tramps,
white or Chinese who carelessly built a
fire to warm themselves.

The objections which mar the short
story, deface the verse of the time as
well. 1t is sensational, or commonplace.
To mind nurtured by the old English
poets it is sadly devoid of stateliness and
grandeur. Sometimes we find a gem
like Father Ryan's valley of Silence"
and then we know the Home page is up
lifted by the deep spirituality and high
sentiment of soul in communion with
God.
Since the union of the LEADER and
UNIvERsALIsT, new names have appeared
to grace the UNCONVENTIONAL annals
names that would become conspicuous in
literature if we could encourage them to
continue in service. It would be posi-
BILE to make the Home page largely orig
inal-the voice of our own noble and
gifted women, If some rich Universalist
would leave the House legacy to be
used to that end. But, in this work-a-
day world, where superior mental endow-
ments are SO uniformly welded to power
ty in material things. we cannot ask for
the gift of time and thought. Will not

THE UNIVERSALIST PUBLISHING
H0USE-A QUARTER OF A
CENTURY.

In accordance with the announce
ment made and calls sent, the UNIvER-
sALIsT PUBLISHING HOUSE commence
rated the TWENTY FIFTH ANNIvER-
sARY of its history on Thursday of the
past week, October 81. The exercises
were held in the Shawmut Avenue
Universalist Church, Boston, and they
began promptly on the hour of P. NJ.
The audience was, in its proportions,
such as, in these latter days, we seldom
see on secular day in metropolitan
city. All the departments, The collat-
erals, and the antecedents of the House
were represented Directors, agents,
those who had sold their interests to the
House, editors, canvassers, employees at
the House on Bromfeld street, and of
the composing room, donors, and the
editor of THE UNIvERsALIsT, repre-
senting the Western Branch, were of
the throng.
Mention should he made of the male
quartet led by Mr.. F. E. Woodward,
director of music at the Shawmut
Church, quartet composed of F. E.
Woodward, B. Noble, T. E. Holden and
F. W. Perry in the vestry at the recep-
ton reinforced by Miss Louise Lane
and Mrs. Bradford. The quartet rem
dered at various stages of the exercises
selections, and also led the audience in
singing from the hymn book.
Rev. DIR. A. A. Miner-whose sugges-
ton, more than quarter of a century
ago, was the acorn whence the present
oak has sprung, and from the first has
been President of the Board of Trustees
was by natural selection the presiding
officer of the occasion. His abundant
gifts in presenting speakers, with apt
illusions to their antecedents, and to
their claims and their special call to
speak representatively and authorita-
lively, never showed to better advan-
tage. In fact his introduction as each
speaker was presented was feature of
the occasion. We proceed to give a
quite full report Of the Twenty Fifth
Anniversary.
Promptly at the hour of 3, DIR. Miner
called on Rev. g. S. Weaver, d. D., of
East Providence, r. l., to lead in devo-
tional service. Complying he read an
appropriate Psalm, and offered prayer.
The male quartet then gave selection
with excellent effect.

THE CHICAGO SUNDAY. SCHOOL
UNION.

The first regular meeting of the 8. 8.
Union, since its organization, was held at
Oak Park, on Thursday afternoon and
evening of last week. A good number
were in attendance from Chicago, Engle-
wood, Woodlawn Park and Joliet. The
Hon. Samuel Kerr presided. The after
noon was devoted to discussion of the
question "How Shall we Obtain the Per-
manent services of Sunday School Teach
ers." and was participated in by Rev.
Miss Kollock, of Englewood; Mrs. Small
Of Blue Island; and Mr.. O. l.. Hutchin-
son, of st. Paul's Church. Chicago. At
five o'clock Normal class exercise was
conducted by Rev. Chas. Conklin, who, in
a spirited and interesting manner, pre-
sented the lesson for the following Sun
day, and made many suggestive points
for teachers.
The evening session was quite as fully
attended as the afternoon, and consisted
of addresses by Mr.. F. G. Moss and the
Rev. @. 8. Nickerson, of Chicago, on the
subject, "From the Sunday School to the
Church" The matter presented was
most interesting, and helpful to the Sun
day-school workers present. The Union
starts out with good promise of usefulness
and influence. The next meeting will
be held with the Church of Our Father,
on the third Thursday in November Let
all our Sunday-schools take an active in
terest in it's work and send large delega-
tions to the next meeting.

WE are indebted to Rev. DR.. Fluhrer,
of Grand Rapids, for the excellent re-
port of the Michigan Convention which
we print this week. 1t was received on
time for last week, but the General
Convention had the right of way, and
the Michigan report was ''side tracked"
until the big especial" got out of the
way. We may say to correspondents
and contributors that after the present
week their esteemed favors shall have
attention.

THE Chicago Tribune, of Monday
last, had half-column article upon
" Hymns" At the close of the article
are these suggestive words: "Those
who wonder why it is so hard to attract
men to public worship will find one
reason, 1 think, in the effeminacy, the
foolishness, and the irreverence of
many of the hymns in common use."
While the Christians of the present
day could by no means sing the hymns
in use generation or two ago, because
of the stern theology they inculcated,
and the views of God and men which
they set forth, it is doubtful whether
the senseless jingle of much of the pop
ular hymnology of the present day is cal
culated to serve the purpose of earnest
worship any better. The sentimentality
of such hymns as "Safe in the arms of
Jesus, 'isas disagreeable to most women
as to most men. The emotional has its
place in religious worship, doubtless, but
those who mistake vapid sentiment
ality for genuine emotion do not know
what true emotional feeling is. The
folly of such juvenile hymns as 81
want to be an angel" the driveling SEN
suality of this, mo. 455 Hymns, An
cient and Modern"),
Amongst the lilies Thou dost feed,
A d thither choirs of virgins lead,
Adoring all thy chosen brides
With glorious gifts Thy love provides"
makes one sigh for the coming of some
sweet, inspired spirit, who can lift the
aspiring soul on wings of song up to the
true worship of the Father in heaven.
We may we'll ask "Who is to write our
hymns ?" All true art requires moral
earnestness quite foreign to the present
day.

The ''personneE' of the Convention
was perhaps the most noticeable in re-
cent years, and embraced an unusually
large number of our eminent clergy and
laity. The Massachusetts delegation
was without single vacancy. The
venerable DR.. Sawyer, now in his eighty
third year, was a conspicuous figure !;
if we mistake not this was his first ap-
pearance in the General Convention as
a delegate from Massachusetts. We
refer the reader to the official list for
the names of the clerical delegates.
Among the distinguished laymen we
may mention Hon. Ara Cushman, Of
Maine; Hon. Moses Humphrey, and
Hon. H. w. Parker, of New Hampshire;
Ex-Lieut. Governor Trask, Hon. Charles
Whittier, and Hon. ]. p Ray, of Mass
chusetts ; Hon. Charles E. Carpenter,
and Hon. Olney Arnold, of Rhode Is
land; Hon. p. I. Barnum, of Connec-
ticut; Hon. E. A. Merritt, of New York.
Among the new men in the Massachu-
sets delegation, of whom the church
will hear more hereafter, we may ven
ture to mention Henry f. Barrows and
]. L. Sweet, of Attleborough. Ohio
was also represented by w, H. Slade,

DIR. HANSON arrived in Chicago on
Saturday evening, Of last week, after
an absence of year and nine months,
lacking single week. He left Chicago
Feb. 6, 1886, and arrived in Glasgow,
Scotland, Feb. %, Immediately enter
ing on his work as pastor Of st. Paul's
church in that city, under contract with
the Woman's Centenary Association.
He continued in that relation twelve
months, taking vacation in July and
August, which he spent in England and
on the continent. He also spent the
month of May in London, in accord
ance with instructions from the Execu-
tive Board of the w. c. A, the pulpit
in Glasgow being supplied by Rev. Mr..
Smith, of Edinburgh, the Sundays
spent en- route, and the Sundays after
the expiration of the regular pastoral
year, balancing the vacation in July
and August, he not leaving Glasgow
until March IA, 1887. After the Glas-
gov contract was filled, DIR. Hanson
went to London, and preached until
May /, on an Independent arrangement
for the Unitarian congregations at
Highgate and Essex church. Then he
spent the month of May on the CONT
nent, visiting France and Italy. Re-
turning to London he spent June and
July preaching in Essex church, Ken
sington. He sailed for America, Aug.
6, arriving on the 18th, eighteen months
exactly from the time he started.
Since August he has been East, and has
preached in Roxbury, Mass; New Ha-
ven, Conn; and Rowley, Mass. His
friends,-and they are legion in the
West-will rejoice to learn that he re-
turns in excellent health and spirits,
and is well prepared for work and use
fulness wherever he may locate. We
may add that DR.. Hanson went to Eu-
rope a good specimen of New Eng
land Yankee, broadened and West
ernized" by long residence in this ia
vored part of the country. He returns
the same Western Yankee-only more
so, believing in America above all lands,
and in Chicago beyond all cities on the
face of the earth. He will remain in
this vicinity a few weeks and can sup
ply vacant pulpits as desired.

CONVENTION ECHOES.

In the report Of last week we are
made to refer to the offering for the
Gum Fund, as "nearly $475." We
wrote ''nearly $175." Even this was the
largest offering ever received at Con-
vention since the institution of the
Fund. We regret that the iberality of
the types was in excess of the fact.

The Publishing House enters upon its
second quarter-century with an enter
prising management, high aims for the
Church it seeks to serve, and with a
bright outlook for increased and increas-
ing prosperity. 1t has wrought mag
nificent work in the twenty-five years
of the past, and when the Golden We'd
ding comes, there is hardly room for
doubt that its present resources will be
doubled, and the prosperity and useful
ness of the House will be found still in
the ascendant. The West will I'M
doubtedly have a large share in the
development of its business and funds
during the next twenty-five years. May
the half century record show that the
capital of the House, now employed so
generously to advance Western inter-
ests, has been wisely placed, and that
the enterprise of the House in the es-
tablishment of the Western Branch
and the publication of THE UNIvER-
sALIsT has been fully justified as de-
nominational and business venture.

OUR columns this week embrace a
report of the afternoon proceedings of
the Silver Wedding of the Publishing
House celebrated in Boston last week.
Next weeks paper will give a full re-
port of the evening exercises, and will
also contain DR.. Eddy's historical ad-
dress. 1t was a unique and interesting
occasion. Between five and six hun
bred invited guests were present at the
reception, and the public services were
attended by still larger number. The
celebration was very decided success
every way considered, and marks an
epoch in the history Of our Church.
The committee planned wisely from the
beginning, and the arrangements were
carried out in a very successful and
handsome manner The reception,
notwithstanding the great crowd, was
managed in an orderly and systematic
manner, and DIR. Miner, as the repre-
sentative of the Trustees, received athe
congratulations of all present. The
collation. which followed was abundant,
and we'll served, and the entire occasion
may be recorded as a signal success.
